    IDK, every youtube video I see from 'back in the day' seems pretty easy. I think it gave some players a false sense of ability. Most of the players including top tier players don't really shine anymore unless they are stacking.

    No one that was legit actually taped themselves, The ones you didn't see were the crazy people. I doubt any of you will ever see the beast that was Mr.N. The only player that actively beat and made me shudder.

    Naw, I wouldn't say that. Most of them (The ones worth while anyway) are following the "Don't try unless needed" mindset. That's what I've been told recently.

    Well, that, and most vets only play if friends are joining. Or if they ask, that's about it. More chilled about it.

    True. I played with him back in the day... He was amazing, and he made it seem effortless... and he wasn't an elitist.

    Sarcasm! You are so cunning! Obviously to anyone with some intelligence who read my post they would see that I was pointing out that I didn't attempt to use what I saw my "heroes" using (bahaha), I just chose to play the funnest way I have found through my own testing

    Bahahahahaha! XD you are hilarious! Get off your high horse already Its just a game, and I can headshot perfectly fine (headshotting is so simple in this game compared to others) everyone rages about the grenade launcher I don't use it because it takes less "accuracy," I use it because it is more fun. Headshotting is great and all but its almost the only thing high levels ever do. Ive done it and its ok to me but It just doesn't seem as much fun to me as raining down a hellstorm of explosions on a group of enemies, watching as they panic in the chaos, then setting fire to them as they try to run XD its just hilarious. One of the best parts is the rage I receive from my victims. Oh the rage.... it makes it twice as fun!

    Why do I grenade? Not because its "easier" because its funner to me. This is a video game, video games are meant to entertain people. Theres nothing wrong with someone playing the game in a manner that entertains them most. Don't be upset because rather then conform to popular playstyles just to have the respect of random people over the internet, I would rather play the way which is most fun for me. I play games to enjoy them, that is all. You play your way Mr.☺☺☺☺☺cat, I'll enjoy mine.

    Got nothing to say against anything I posted so you simply attack the fact that I had a lot more to say then you did? Sad... Omg! Funner isn't a word you say!? I feel so ashamed I have humiliated myself on the internet to complete strangers Just kidding, I could care less what you think anyways everything I said stands, I choose to play the way that is most fun to me. Don't like it? Don't care. Keep raging though and trying to be a tough "cat" on the internet I find it entertaining!

    ..What is all this bad doing in this thread all of a sudden? GOOD LORD! I thought there was going to be discussion when I opened this! Silly me.

    Ignoring the ☺☺☺☺ this topic is getting filled up with though,

    I remember the good old days when everyone was so terrible, In forums or not. Besides the one or two douches who'd join, it was a simple delight. I need to get my time machine.

    Where is some good old distraction when you need it!?

    Fish, Ponies, GO!

    I agree.

    I didn't play bio when it came out but I wish I had. It would have been so awesome to be the first person to be known as a suicider/GL/FIRE enthusiast! XD

    To be honest, I thought everything in your post proved my initial point... That's why I didn't bother picking it apart...

    First off you are correct that you don't know me, second I can care less what I seem like to you you are just some random faceless person from the internet. You could think of me as a saint, or as scum of the Earth, it would make no difference to me. Not to mention its pretty "immature" to call someone who hasn't even said a word to you, a "douche" but ah well meaningless opinions from random unimportant internet people is nothing more then entertainment to me Please do go on...

    And as far as "fair play" is concerned, everything I posted is a natural part of the game that anyone can do, so "fair" as fair can be Trust me I would never quit a match with you, your rage would be way too entertaining. XD

    Let's hope everyone is done getting off topic in this thread. (Though secretly I do hope to see more rage )

    I seriously hope what you do in your free time isn't just assuming everyone's lives but your own revolves on a meaningless notion of perceived anger at your unnecessary in-game obnoxiousness, and relishing in that sensation you're unfortunately unable to find in real life. Overcompensation's a ☺☺☺☺☺.

    That being said, Fallout is awesome.

    When have I ever insinuated I do that? Like I've already stated here, and like it says in my bio, I play Bioshock MP for fun. Hence why regardless of how people might feel about it, I like to use the grenade launcher as my primary weapon. Its simply the most fun for me. For the same reason, I find when others rage at me for doing so to be quite humorous. Its a part of the game, its not like you have to hack to use the GL, no its on the original roster of weapons in the game. Complaining about it is just childish. XD And people getting all hot and bothered on an online forum for a video game is just as ridiculous, hence why rage on here is also entertainment. People getting mad at text on a screen posted by a random individual they have never met in their life...

    As for what I do in my free time, you can look on my profile if you have such an interest in me other then whats listed there, what I do in my free time is no one's business besides my own and those I spend it with. But since you are an expert on my life please do go on, tell me more about myself according to your infinite knowledge of my life I agree, overcompensation's a ☺☺☺☺☺.

    And yes, Fallout is indeed awesome

    Yes you do qualify for being an 'immature douche'. You use way too many smiley faces, act like your very intelligent, you assume that when somebody puts you in your place that they are 'raging' ( when they just look down on you and feel kinda sorry ), you hide behind the internet like any prepubescent boy would do these days and your just trying to be some hotshot kid.

    About the ingame sportmenship. This again has alot to do with maturity, not only in game but in life. Experience will hopefully make you realise that respect is important. No matter where it is asked from you.

    Ps : If you really didnt care what i thought of you, you wouldnt have answerd to it in the 1st place. You try to impress people by acting your mysterious and you dont care but you come off very needy and alone.

    You sure spend a lot of time telling people you don't care. That's pretty much the most obvious sign there is that you do indeed care.

    Edit: Nevermind. I see bil28 beat me to it. And he cared enough to type it all out.

    Please stop the bickering and get back on topic. I'd rather not have to close the thread because it turned into a flame war.

    oooooooooo how cheeky. all the hats are old. everyone uses the same combos. there won't be anything new unless we magically get new weapons or plasmids. so shall we point out anything else that's obvious?

    In my opinion, it's how you use the loadout, that makes it different. Sure, variants are numbered, but it's the playstyle that counts. Hard to remember (or imagine at this point) that era when most of us were friends. I'd rather just tackle it, indifferently.

    I completely agree with both of you Anyone who thinks their loadouts are 100% unique obviously hasn't played the game very much (or any game for that matter). All online games have a limited amount of possible weapon combinations and Bioshock is no different. The way the player chooses to handle those loadouts is what makes them different.

    So I stand by what I said, old "pros" need to get on and taste some grenades and FIRE! Its tons of fun as long as no one takes the game seriously and rages (even though that is hilarious) As for you brutalxbarbie, send me a friend request on psn and next time we are both on we can hang Tear up some noobs! I'm not on that often either though so might be a while XD

    Though i admit that another part of me quitting is the fact that everytime i get on bioshock people join my lobbies in hopes of playing against me. Although i feel grateful for getting attention sometimes i just want to be alone in lobbies with bioshock. It's always been that way in bioshock for me, i usually can't stand playing with other people

    I also remember when friends were understanding and didn't fly off the handle... and when long time players weren't turret boosting to help an MPD alt rank up...

    There used to be a time when you could trust people and consider them friends. Those days are over. Oh, and be careful who you choose to friend on Facebook. Sometimes former friends turn out to be vipers who play immature ☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺ games in the name of... vengence? pettiness? complete stupidity? reliving the high school they couldn't graduate from? I don't know but it's killed this game for me and this "community."

    Friendship became overrated. /Hipster'd

    Now to cleverly insert a /Thread, to anger Tx.

    In all seriousness the (So to speak) "good, old days" are dead. So why not create a new one? Then again, I tried to unify the community during the very same "good,old days". Turns out, everybody hated each other as equally (If not more). So, let us unite for the sole purpose of hatred. Hatred binds us all, possibly together, if we play the right cards. Sometimes antagonism is good. It can breed rivalry, maybe. I know of quite a few players of many elements (Which can include Water and Venomous elements, respectively) who first started off with needless antagonism. But, it helped facilitate rivalry and friendship as well, in the long run. Probably a bad idea, actually.

    I remember the day's when grown adult's didn't care what younger people thought or said about them. I guess those day's are over now huh. Oh well if you can't beat'em, join'em or in this case publicly insult them. Talk about getting off-topic, I wonder who's being vengeful, petty, dumb, and reliving their high school experience?
